A couple of years of the usual interruptions of life along with bad weather kept it from being delivered. &nbsp;It's too big to fit into the beach wagon, so it's got to go in the pickup.<br /><br />The sun was shining, the truck was in the driveway the new owners were going to be home, &nbsp;so it finally moved out of the garage and into it's new home. <br /><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"></div><br /><div class="separator" style="clear: both; text-align: center;"><br /></div>That was a fun project. I wouldn't mind making another one. I still have the <a href="http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=jR4tTQVjHUI&amp;feature=related">Dropkick Murphys</a> CD. &nbsp;Let me know if you're interested.<br /><br />I also stopped by the <a href="http://www.escapecod.com/billy.html">W.H. Lutz</a> Gallery, in Harwichport. &nbsp;I had switched out a couple of paintings the last time I was there and I wanted to give him a new price list.<br /><br />Bill was there, working on a new painting. His studio is right in the gallery. &nbsp;Stop by and see him if you're in town. &nbsp;He's always got a positive outlook and is happy to see you.<br /><br />He'll be even happier if you buy something.<br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br /><br />All rights reserved.

The kids are back at school, the tourists numbers start to dwindle and it's time to prepare for Winter.<br /><br />For me Fall means a return to the studio. I am back to the drawing board both literally and figuratively. Here is an update of what I've been up to. I left out the status of the laundry intentionally.<br /><br /><br />I am working on increasing my portfolio for the fine art as well as the illustration. I am also working on the marketing of both, which continues to be a learning experience.<br /><br />I am excited that the music <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-error">CDs</span> for the book, "Clouds" are in the process of being produced. Kathleen <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-error">Healy</span> and I will be hitting the street with those as soon as we can.<br /><br />Here is some more good news. Thanks to artist, <a href="http://www.russellvujs.com/About_the_Artist.html">Russell <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_2" class="blsp-spelling-error">Vujs</span></a> and gallery director, Bruce Cook I will now be showing at the <a href="http://chathamvillagegallery.com/"><span id="SPELLING_ERROR_3" class="blsp-spelling-error">Chatham</span> Village Gallery</a> in <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_4" class="blsp-spelling-error">Chatham</span>, Mass. I look forward to being a part of such a great group of artists.<br /><br /><a href="http://www.artsfoundation.org/fall-for-the-arts">"Fall for the Arts, Cape Cod"</a> is the weekend of October 2 -4, 2009. If you are going to be in the area check out some of the great events happening at most of the Arts venues on the Cape.<br /><br /><br />I will be posting pictures of the new work soon.

The three of them have such a close bond. The humans of the group walk the beach just about every day, even in the winter. Their little "Baby" is getting too old to join them. I have never been much of a dog person and I didn't used to understand the strong bond some folks have with their pets. Over the years I have come to realize that love is love .</div><div>Some find it in nature or with God or their work or pets or if they are really lucky with other human beings.</div><div> </div><div><span style="font-size:85%;">All rights reserved.

I was so happy to see everyone, some folks I hadn't seen since I left campus my graduating year. My friend J.Q. joined the festivities. As I was giving him a hug he told me that he had something for me. I knew right away that it was the book I had illustrated. </div><div></div><div>J.Q. has been going way out of his way to help me "<span id="SPELLING_ERROR_0" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">self"</span>-publish it. "Self" is in quotes because I hardly did it on my own.</div><div></div><div>I sent him right out to the car to get a copy.</div><div></div><div>About a year ago I decided that I wanted to have a printed book that I could use as a promotional piece. I asked my songwriter friend if I could use one of her children's songs to illustrate. Once I got the illustrations done, I realised that I didn't know anything about publishing.</div><div></div><div>I sent a general message to all my friends that I thought could give me a clue. </div><div>J.Q. took the ball and ran with it. He brought the originals to our friend, C.R.'s oversize scanner (thanks C.R.) <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">because</span> I made the images too big for my standard scanner. Then he took the images and uploaded them to his computer, cleaned them up and put them in a book form layout that the printer could use. He also did some cut and paste magic to created the cover which looked much better than the one I had made using scissors and glue. </div><div></div><div>We have been communicating back and forth since September and last night I got to see the finished product and show it to my art school buddies.</div><div></div><div>I am very happy with the finished product, much better than I would have done on my own. </div><div></div><div></div><div><span style="color:#666666;">All rights reserved.

I knew that after he lived here a while he start to understand.<br />Winter is the time for school, repairs and visiting out of town <span id="SPELLING_ERROR_1" class="blsp-spelling-corrected">relatives</span>. But most of that time is spent preparing for summer. Retail shops are ordering goods. Landscapers are lining up jobs. Cottages are being booked. Summer stock is being cast. Artists, like myself are preparing for shows and doing their best to be securely in some galleries by Memorial Day.<br />Summer is the time to make the most out of the warm weather, good company and hope business stays steady into Labor Day and on through to Columbus Day. Then it's time to take the Boogie Boards out of the trunk of the car, dust off the winter coat and start the cycle again.<br /><span style="font-size:85%;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;"></span><br /><span style="font-size:85%;">All rights reserved.

It was going to be part of the "Frigid Festival" in New York City.<br /><br />My first thoughts were that this was going to be a big, expensive, time-consuming project. Just thinking about shipping the rolls of canvas gave me a headache. But as we discussed it further the idea for small images that I could scan and email to her came about.<br /><br />She could use the jpegs to make a "slide" presentation on a white screen on stage. I was very excited about this idea and worked up some 8.5" x 11" images based on her requests.<br /><br />When my seven year old saw them she said "These are too small. The people on stage are much bigger than this."<br /><br />I emailed the images to my NY writer friend and a couple weeks later; there I was in a theater in New York looking at my images on stage.<br /><br />It's fun living in the future.<br /><br /><br />All rights reserved.

H. Lutz Gallery in Harwichport, Massachusetts.<br /><br />Moira Birch Swiatkowski<br />Artist Statement<br /><br />Lucky enough to live and paint on Cape Cod, I am constantly amazed by our natural world and the mighty Atlantic Ocean that surrounds us. I am also amazed by how many people feel such a strong emotional connection to the Cape. Through the years I have been observing family, friends, strangers and even myself as we interact with the beautiful landscapes and seascapes.<br /><br />My bright and colorful paintings capture the human response to nature at a specific time and place. Each image has a different color palette and mood depending on the seemingly endless variations in the landscape of this place I call home. The time of day, the weather, the time of year or even which beach I am at affects the color of the sky and water.<br /><br />The human response has as many variables as nature, such as the person’s age, life experience and mood. I take all of these things into account as I create a new piece.<br /><br />The beach is a constant source of inspiration for me that never disappoints. I could go to the same beach everyday and see something new in the sky or the water or myself.<br /><br />I love living by the sea. I love having the opportunity to express all the ranges of beauty and emotion to be found here through my paintings.<br /><br /><br />All rights reserved.

We had a lovely time in December, parties and all. We even went out in the blizzard to celebrate the new year.<br /><br />While waiting to go out on New Years I was <span class="blsp-spelling-error" id="SPELLING_ERROR_1">IMing</span> with a friend of mine who lives on the other side of the <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_2">Atlantic</span>. We were discussing new year's resolutions. I told her that I was going to keep it simple. My resolution was to put up an art show this year. <br /><br />While on the computer, I checked out a link from one of my Pacific friends about "luck". It was about a study that showed that lucky people are really just more observant of <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_3">opportunities</span> when they come about. For example, a lucky person would find money on the ground whereas an unlucky person would never expect there to be money on the ground and would pass it by. <br /><br />A couple of days later one of these <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_4">opportunities</span> (<em>thanks, MDB)</em> came along. I had two days to gather up all my work, write an artist's statement and hang the show. <br /><br />So it's January 5, 2009 and I have completed my resolution. <em> My husband thinks I should make a new resolution to finish painting the trim in our house.</em> I don't know about that but I do know that I am keeping my eyes wide open in 2009. Maybe I'll find some money on the ground.atlanticmohttp://www.blogger.com/profile/10876956812297529149noreply@blogger.com2tag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1391782289195211155.post-8904789118654557082008-11-19T15:08:00.001-05:002008-11-19T15:19:17.737-05:00The Studio<a href="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4PEo_LylCcg/SSRygSyOFrI/AAAAAAAAAHE/YlMGJRysg9k/s1600-h/DSC01702.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5270463363054180018" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 320px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 240px" alt="" src="http://2.bp.blogspot.com/_4PEo_LylCcg/SSRygSyOFrI/AAAAAAAAAHE/YlMGJRysg9k/s320/DSC01702.JPG" border="0" /></a><br /><div><a href="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4PEo_LylCcg/SSRyf6w5gcI/AAAAAAAAAG8/u1OhYyqVGZw/s1600-h/DSC01699.JPG"><img id="BLOGGER_PHOTO_ID_5270463356606185922" style="FLOAT: left; MARGIN: 0px 10px 10px 0px; WIDTH: 240px; CURSOR: hand; HEIGHT: 320px" alt="" src="http://3.bp.blogspot.com/_4PEo_LylCcg/SSRyf6w5gcI/AAAAAAAAAG8/u1OhYyqVGZw/s320/DSC01699.JPG" border="0" /></a> Here are some photos of my art studio that my wonderful husband built for me. </div><div>I feel very <span class="blsp-spelling-corrected" id="SPELLING_ERROR_0">privileged</span> to have such a nice space. </div><div>I have always had to carve out a spot to paint wherever I happen to live.
